Nursery Blog - Autumn Term1

Date: 24th Oct 2025 @ 12:42pm

Well that first half term went quickly! The Nursery children have been fantastic and have settled beautifully into their setting. We have been so proud of the bravery they have shown coming in on their own and organising themselves.

We have been learning new routines, rules have been established and it has been a pleasure watching friendships beginning to form and grow.

The children have been developing their gross motor skills outside with lots of climbing, running, rolling and riding bikes.

They have also been developing their fine motor skills through mark making, painting, building using duplo and wooden bricks.

All of this gross and fine motor development will be getting their muscles and their brains ready for writing.

Lunchtimes have been a hit and the children have been learning to speak clearly using sentences and remembering their manners when talking to each other.

We have also seen lots of imaginative play both inside and out, so much problems solving – particularly with our conker runs, operations taking place in the Westfield Hospital and lots of baking in the playdough area.

Nursery, well done on a fantastic first half term. Have a lovely break and we’ll see you after the holiday ready for lots more learning and fun.
